wrap your brain around this :puzzled: :puzzled: :puzzled: :puzzled:



its direct quoting.. they cant lie about that and not get sued. soo

BOBO BALDE has dropped a bombshell on Celtic by revealing he wants to extend his £28,000-a-week deal by two years which would take him close to a testimonial.

The defender’s admission will also stun Birmingham boss Alex McLeish who hoped he’d sign later this week.

His warning is a clear indication he is prepared to sit it out again this season, unless Celtic agree a golden handshake like Thomas Gravesen’s.

Speaking after playing in Guinea’s defeat by the Ivory Coast in France in midweek, he said: “I love Celtic. I have been here seven years now and would like to stay even longer.

“I love the fans, the Scottish people and the Scottish league. I love the club — I adore the club.

“I would like to honour my contract until the very end — until the last day, minute, second.

“At the end of the year I will have completed eight years at the club. My wish is to sign another two years at Celtic. But that will be hard if I don’t fit into the coach's plans. You never know in life — things can change.”

Balde says he will only quit if gaffer Gordon Strachan personally tells him he’s finished.

He added: “I am behaving 100 per cent like a professional. I can’t do any more than that.

“If they don’t need me it’s up to them to let me know.”
Apologies for the source, but it does contain direct quotes.

2 year extension at 28,000? Surely this must be a wind up...Does he realize that he doesn't play and we don't want him!?!?! I thought Strachan came out in the press saying that we wanted to get rid of him and Gravensen? :headwall:

It's just the fact that he said he wants an extension that is the frustrating part. Read the writing on the wall, Bobo!

He said he wants to sign for another two years, that doesn't mean it will be an extension. He could sign a contract and take a wage-cut.
Emk is right, we shouldn't sign players for long-term if we're not going to use them. Bobo doesn't have to go anywhere if he doesn't want to.

Eh, it's News of the World, wouldn't get too caught up with the content of the article.

Even if it's true, I think the club will let him walk by the end of the season anyway. No sense signing him to a contract extension if he is to play no role with the team.

Maybe it's just me, but this kinda reminds me of the scene from Collateral at the jazz club; to be more precise, the exchange between the club owner and Vincent just before Vincent offed the owner:

Quote:
Daniel: Just when I thought you were a cool guy.
Vincent: I am a cool guy, with a job I contracted to do.


:puzzled:

apparently they had agreed to let him go but balde refused to sign a confidentiality agreement.. so they ended the negotiations.

why would he need a confidentiality agreement? unless something is fishy up at celtic park among the board which I suspect. Cant wait till hes out of contract so he can reveal it. I have a feeling we are heading to the kellys management style soon. Peter Liewell can gtf with the war criminal.
